I was just reading a recap article on SearchSecurity by Patrick Gray who is attending the Kiwicon security conference in the land down under. He just reported about a presentation from Graeme Neilson of Aura Software Security about how easy it is to load a Trojan on a BlackBerry device.
Kiwicon day two got off to [...]
SplashData, the creators of SplashID Secure Password Safe, have just released an update to their SplashID application. The new version looks very slick compared to previous versions. I would recommend checking out the plentiful screenshots on the product page.
Sadly the upgrade is not free for current users but at least the upgrade fee is a reasonable $9.95. The [...]
Josep just found a new version of Google Maps that is available for BlackBerry devices. The new version can be downloaded either by going to Google’s mobile site or by using Google’s new Updater application that we mentioned before.
I have just installed it on my BlackBerry 8310 and here are my first impressions. This [...]
If you are one of those people (like me) who has to have the latest version of everything…RIM has just released updated versions of the Google Talk and Yahoo Messenger clients. The version is a bump from 2.0.33 to 2.0.38. As usual RIM has provided no release notes or change log so we have no [...]
Gemblock has released another one of his much applauded themes called Black Diamond. This one is BB 8100 only with OS 4.2.1. The theme is quite nice and played down with no flashy colors like his horribly pink previous theme.
Announcement and download links including OTA download are available at this link: http://gemblock.com

A bit back I had asked Neil Sainsbury, the developer of BBSmart, why no 3rd party application developers made use of the push technology built into the BlackBerry platform. I asked him because I am still dreaming about the day we could get a push RSS feed reader for BlackBerry that would not harm your [...]
I was just reading geek.com and noticed a post about a 25% discount sale that Handmark has offered until the 28th of November. This is a great opportunity to get a copy of Pocket Express on the cheap or other Handmark applications such as their Authentic Tetris (Which is priced very high at $19.99 before [...]
Seidio seems to be working very hard on their OEM battery line for BlackBerry devices. This time they have outdone themselves by increasing their original extended battery from 1300mAh to 1500mAh. They claim you will be seeing 30–35% more battery life than the original 900mAh battery that comes with your curve. The best part is [...]
Josep just found a new Google Updater application that allows you to install all of the Google applications on your BlackBerry from one location. The new application does not bring all that much more to the table and this is not the first time that Google has tried such a thing. The new part in [...]
Gregory A. Quirk just wrote a great article on EETimes.com that I have to share with you. He decided to compare the USB transfer speeds between the following 4 devices:
Apple iPhone
BlackBerry 8120
Sony Ericsson W910i Walkman
Motorola Razr 2
The results are staggering in favor of the BlackBerry:
The BlackBerry transfered at at average 13mb/sec compared to the iPhones [...]
